Table of contents
The segmentation of web pages follows the design style of the Icelandic Bókatíðindi (Book Bulletin), launched every year at the Reykjavik Book Fair and sent to every household in the country. The Icelandic catalogue comprises every new book published in the country that year. People use the Bókatíðindi to choose the books they want to buy to give to loved ones for Christmas.
This catalogue covers the period 1 July 2019 (week of International Day of Cooperatives) to 30 June 2020 (World Social Media Day) and collects recommendations made during the crowdfunding campaigns for Jolabokaflod and Sumarbokaflod in 2019 and 2020:
